[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I was in school, disruptive kids were not much of an issue because the school and the teachers were extremely good at managing them. If there was a disruption, the teacher could remove the child quickly from the classroom and the lesson would continue.

My experience with private schools nowadays, through my child, has been very different. I see several disruptive kids who are not being effectively managed by the teacher, and those kids are eventually expelled.

So my question is: which approach is better overall? To me, there seems to be a trend toward shifting responsibility for classroom management from the teacher to the students. What do you think?[/quote]

It’s always the parents responsibility … how is this even a question? Sick of the well behaved kids essentially being neglected to accommodate children who can’t behave. [/quote]

Teacher here. I’m very aware of making sure the well-behaved kids are praised publicly and get to choose things first, etc. I know they still get the shaft because there is SO much misdirection which means less time for actual learning, but hopefully my students do know that they are seen and appreciated.
